speaker wiring bass bins

mr optimum balance first came to the attention of this forum in this thread.

his barrage of useless insults is actually better than his barrage of useless jargon- at least it's clear what a muppet he is there.

boyd was funnier. ToXiC had his moments. what's OB got?

user 2x18 must be even more confused after the hilarity of this thread!

If you've not been scared away from this forum forever 2x18, here's some simple advice without the over-technical nonsense.

825w per channel seems quite low for running two 18"s regardless of the load. I would definately give your drivers slightly more watts than they need (which will mean investing in more powerful amps) and restrict the signal db at your crossover to account for the extra power. Although the tolerances of the system will become more sensitive, you will get a better response overall. Your current amps will be working very hard with this setup and will probably protect/overheat quite rapidly should you want to run it hard.
To help your query, if you're dead set on this setup, switch your amps to parrallel and run one cab off each channel. If you have the option, use the link output of your first amp to send a signal to your second amp. You will then be sending a matching mono bass signal to each cab.

Although, as norty303 pointed out, running bass using this (parallel) method isn't ideal for large applications, I feel it will be more than adequate in your case and makes more sense than running your bass in stereo.
